Is George Orwell a real person?

A review of "Allusions to the Garden of Eden and other themes in George Orwell´s 1984"

Michael
Smulkowski is the author of several rather weird e-books, including one where
he argues that Luke Skywalker is a real person from the future. (You´d wish.)
I´m not sure whether the man is pulling both our legs, or only one of them.
This short article on George Orwell´s “1984” says very little interesting about
the novel, and reminds me of the kind of literary criticism where the critic
simply superimposes whatever meaning he sees fit on the text. Perhaps it´s
intended as parody? Seriously, dude, write about Orwell´s dependency on Bruno R
and Burnham next time!
